I love we’ll get same benefits, text bubbles, read receipts, etc. as between only iMessage.
I just wonder why it took them so long?
I watched Brandon Butches video on a little bit about it. I gathered it’s most likely bc of EU government issues? If so that’s pretty dumb it had to get to that point.
Yeah definitely long overdue. I believe Apple did confirm that the bubbles will still be green when sending texts via RCS though.
My understanding is that the green bubbles were going to stay and even though iMessage will support RCS, It won’t be E2E encrypted.
I’d just like it to be a darker shade of green. The current green feels intentionally ugly.
Why is every one assuming the green bubbles will leave? Maybe they won’t be green because we don’t know that SMS will go completely away on iPhone so it may even be a third color. But I highly doubt they will use blue because they still want iMessage to stand out.
Many people do not understand that the green color stands for SMS and not for Android. And it is important to know th difference because it might cost money if you sent them. Especially when it becomes an MMS because you did send emojis or pictures.
I’m from germany and have flat for basically everything, not for MMS though. And our mobile Internet is EXPENSIVE so this will cost extra money for allmost everyone here. So I need to know this. And a simple color difference seems to be the best option.
I like the green bubbles, let’s me know who is on Android. It matters sometimes, it’s nice to know beforehand.
